Levels of the CNS
1) Spinal cord2) Brain stem and sub cortical3) Cerebral cortex
![Page 5: Neurophysiology of the central nervous system Dr. Loai Alzghoul Loai.physiology@yahoo.com](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ed95503460f94be81c1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
3 Major Levels of CNS Function
• The spinal cord level.– more than just a conduit for signals from
periphery of body to brain and vice versa.– cord contains:
• walking circuits.• reflexes circuits.
![Page 6: Neurophysiology of the central nervous system Dr. Loai Alzghoul Loai.physiology@yahoo.com](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ed95503460f94be81c1/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The brain stem and subcortical
• Contains:– medulla, pons, mesencephalon,
hypothalamus, thalamus, cerebellum and basal ganglia.
• Controls subconscious body activities:– arterial pressure, respiration, equilibrium,
feeding reflexes, emotional patterns.

The Higher Brain or Cortical Level
• Higher order functions : language, thoughts and personality
• Large memory storehouse.• Each portion of the nervous system
performs specific functions, but it is the cortex that opens the world up for one’s mind.
![Page 8: Neurophysiology of the central nervous system Dr. Loai Alzghoul Loai.physiology@yahoo.com](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ed95503460f94be81c1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Organization of the Nervous System
• Sensory Division– tactile, visual, auditory, olfactory.
• Motor Division– respond to and move about in our
environment.• Integrative Division
– process information, creation of memory.

Communication Between Neurons
• Synapse:

Communication Between Neurons
• Synapse: A specialized site of contact, and transmission of information between a neuron and an effector cell

Communication Between Neurons
• Electrical synapse

Neurotransmitter: is a messenger of
neurologic information from
one cell to another.

Synaptic Transmission
![Page 33: Neurophysiology of the central nervous system Dr. Loai Alzghoul Loai.physiology@yahoo.com](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ed95503460f94be81c1/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Action of Neurotransmitter on Postsynaptic Neuron
• postsynaptic membrane contains receptor proteins for the transmitter released from the presynaptic terminal.
• The effect of neurotransmitter on the post synaptic neuron depend on the type of the receptor
![Page 34: Neurophysiology of the central nervous system Dr. Loai Alzghoul Loai.physiology@yahoo.com](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ed95503460f94be81c1/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Action of Neurotransmitter on Postsynaptic Neuron
• Two types of receptors– Ion channels receptors
![Page 35: Neurophysiology of the central nervous system Dr. Loai Alzghoul Loai.physiology@yahoo.com](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ed95503460f94be81c1/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Action of Neurotransmitter on Postsynaptic Neuron
• Two types of receptors– Ion channels receptors– Second messenger receptors
![Page 36: Neurophysiology of the central nervous system Dr. Loai Alzghoul Loai.physiology@yahoo.com](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ed95503460f94be81c1/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Ion Channels receptors
• transmitters that open sodium channels excite the postsynaptic neuron.
• transmitters that open chloride channels inhibit the postsynaptic neuron.
• transmitters that open potassium channels inhibit the postsynaptic neuron.

Seconded messenger receptors(as example G-protein)
Ion Channel
1. Opening specific ion channels
2. Activation of cAMP or cGMP
3. Activation of one or more intracellular enzymes
4. Activation of gene transcription.
